    There is a thread on this and I mentioned Pulis also. Wouldn't put Poyet in there, he has had 4 great results of late but Allardyce did this a few months ago also to keep West Ham up but isn't near the running. A lot mentioning Pochettino also but not for me, he's done a good job but Southampton should have went for a cup. Not in any order but the 4 contenders should be: Rodgers - Taking Liverpool from 7th to near title winners. Naïve against Palace this week probably goes against him but if they pull off the title then he wins it. Pellegrini - Barring an unlikely defeat a League and Cup double. Pulis - Remarkable safety job from bottom to mid table. Gets my vote. Martinez - Taking Everton onto a better level and close to CL. Very close to getting my vote.

    Good results last night see's Hibs slip into the play off spot. If Kilmarnock get a draw at Easter Road on Saturday then Hibs will be in the play off. If Hibs go down then its a wet dream for Doncaster and Co, how jammy can they get! Rangers v Hearts 4 times, Rangers v Hibs 4 times, Edinburgh derby 4 times. A top flight league of 18 is a must.

    Title pretty much wrapped up and City have only been top of the league for 11 days this season compared to Arsenal's 128, Chelsea's 64 and Liverpools 59. So much for 'points on the board' is better. Cant see West Ham spoiling the party but in this season I wouldn't bet against it.

    Yes and letting Gascoigne leave before the end of the season. A half fit Gazza would have got us over the line.

    With funds a doubt Id rather see us look at loan signings from Premier League English clubs rather than signing more run of the mill Scottish premiership players on 3 year deals who we will be stuck with for a few years. These players often came during WS in the 90s and played better due to the talent in the rest of the squad but under Ally its a shame they go backwards. If we could get a Kyle Bartley or that standard then it is a good move for the season ahead.

    I still think Mourinho would have been their best choice followed by Guardiola. But I think Rijkaard is the one they should have looked at, it was him who started Barcelona's great run. Van Gaal will improve Man Utd from Moyes which wont be hard but I still think the will be in a battle for top 4 position next season. Chelsea and Man City will be out in front again and Liverpool wont be as strong with CL football. Arsenal HAVE to get stronger. Spurs and Everton will depend on Thursday night football which is a pest and how they add to their squad. It wouldn't surprise me if De Boer and Bergkamp are in charge at Emirates next season. Wenger has said he is staying but that could mean in a role upstairs!! I think we may see a number of changes over the summer with Newcastle, West Ham, Aston Villa, Tottenham, West brom all making changes and it could have a knock on effect for the likes of Hull and Southampton.

    This type of gesture does exist though, I did this at the start of Div 3 with a ST.

    Agree with that. Pay 30+ players who are at the end of their career ahead of developing youngsters. I fear giving Ally any future funds and fear going into next season with him in charge. Seems Little has posters split but I liked him, thought he was a decent striker and he did score 20 goals last season then didn't get a chance after an injury. At the start of the season Little, Clark, Hemmings and Daly was what I thought would be 4 decent strikers with variations and goals through out especially with Law, Shiels and Templeman providing plenty creation. Throw in McKay and Macleod then we had a chance of an attractive playing team. Also a fine statement from him and an applause for sticking by the club....

    Yeah USA 94 was a cracking tournament aswell even if none of the home nations made it. The final itself was a let down though when it should have been a classic. But players like Romario, Hagi and Stoitchkov stand out from that WC.

    It would be interesting if someone who has been to most games was to give each player a rating out of 10 and taking into consideration that they started the season well then faded away (Law and Daly).

    If Man City don't win it now there is something wrong. 2 home games against Villa and West Ham and they just need 4 points.
  12. Gribz
    Not a chance. Ghana are a good side but I expect Portugal and Germany to show their quality. Its very refreshing to have big teams against each other in group stages. Im well against seeding but its work out well here. Group C is a dream draw and how it should be.

    It shows how far we have went backwards when Im actually thinking Boyd would be an improvement. Although its more that he seems to have matured in the last year - possibly from his Portland experience. But Ive no confidence in McCoist which is a shame. Players seem to go backwards under him. Daly and Clark are examples this season.

    Only a month away. Being it Brazil should in theory be the best World Cup but some stadia are not even ready. We are due a good World Cup as the last 2-3 haven't been great. Mexico 86 was the first WC I can remember and is probably the greatest of all time. Italia 90 was good as was France 98. I fancy Argentina to win it. Groups below and Ive put in bold who i think will qualify from groups. Group A Brazil, Croatia, Mexico, Cameroon Group B Spain, Netherlands, Chile, Australia Group C Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan Group D Uruguay, Costa Rica, England, Italy Group E Switzerland, Ecuador, France, Honduras Group F Argentina, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Iran, Nigeria Group G Germany, Portugal, Ghana, United States Group H Belgium, Algeria, Russia, South Korea

    A year or two too late for me, he perhaps shouldn't have left second time around. However he is a good option for next season and id expect him to get 15-20 goals.
  16. Gribz
    Im ok with any date and glad that the next one is going to be held in Singapore.
  17. Gribz
    Haha, your worried about him nicking your birds. Admin - can we????

    Not sure who to ask here....Frankie maybe Can we bring Jonc back to the boards? I had an email asking. He is a nice guy and his ban was due to abusing me which a on jokingly purposes' so I have no issues. He wasn't smalce esk so can it be considered? Have a heart chaps.

    This is up to Gordon for me. He is potentially a top keeper if he has shaking his injuries off and is mentally ready. If he is the same keeper that he was 3 years ago (and keepers get better by age) then it would be silly not to have him. He is equally as good as McGregor. A no brainer for me so long as he is ready. Top top keeper IF he is fit and ready.

    Bye bye Fulham and Cardiff. 2 teams who shouldn't have got rid of their managers. Shame for Fulham but Cardiff aren't a loss. Sunderland on champions league form...... Get in City! Just don't want to see Liverpool win that league. Hoping for Chelsea to win today to put the pressure on them.
  21. Gribz
    With the way we are playing the next OF league game is still a long way off!!

    2 years in a row. Stockbridge last season for the wonderful job he did in getting the team promoted, and now Wallace on this salary plus his 25k increase for promotion. The fans need to step up together to end this.
  23. Gribz
    I'll step in tomorrow if nothing us up near kick off.....
  24. Gribz
    Not quite. I'd take Man City's all day long.
  25. Gribz
    Id like to see Atletico winning it plus a double with La Liga.
